That is a very nice sketch! I just started observing in solar with my first views from my new PST this week. I saw a little of what you have hear this morning, but my image is reverse from what you have. That loop you have at 2 o'clock is at 11 in my scope. I see my view is inverted as while observing yesterday I saw a airplane go across the sun upside down....LOL

Welcome in sun observing. That is a so wonderful world. All scopes are not oriented the same way and depend also if you are looking east or west. I started sketching last august and actually your are looking at my 255th sketch of the sun.

As for myself, I'm observing with a Lunt LS152. I'm visual observer only. Here my scope mounted on the same mount as my C14.

I also own a smaller Celestron C80 (3") scope equiped with the Lunt 50mm solar filter. All three can be mounted separately.

Yes, respect !
And thanks to share pictures of your material, that give us another idea of what is needed to reach this 255° sketch,... respect !
I pray for a sunny day in Canada today, (Mars 2nd), a nice prot. is far ejected into the sun's crown! I hope this will stay for you, look 10:45 UT

Thank you Tom. You are a curious membre Tom. It would be nice to see you on a picture. You are commenting everybody's work without exception like a loyal friend but we don't hear much about you. Anyway, thanks for your support.

Wonderful, as always! The big sun spot on the right looks like a giant whirlpool!

Also my sincere admiration for your epical work! It's incredible how you persevere, even under such dire circumstances as Canadian winter. I don't think many would have the tenacity and passion to equal your work.
